@Clay I believe you maybe wrong, I think the article was sometime around 2006 or 07 or 08 where the county commissioners voted for a pay raise for themselves. They also have the power to set other county employees salaries as well, not the state.

@Stumpknocker their salaries are set by the state as are the salaries for all the other constitutional officers.

This is no more than some sort of a side job for them, I maybe wrong but I believe their pay is just north of $70,000 a year. And you can bet the topics that the working class will be concerned about, those meeting will occur in the morning meeting, while we’re at work. I’m sure their all gonna vote for a pay raise for themselves. They should not have ran for office if they had a conflict with their regular jobs, so now that their cutting back on their time spent maybe they should vote for a pay deduction,after all that’s what the big raise they got was suppose to have covered.

This is just a way to silence the public and keep one key note speaker who has the ability to speak in a way to relay one message for a group of citizens. The bocc fear that the citizens are becoming to well organized in demanding what the citizens in this county want. This is there way of shooting us down. Three minutes to speak on a serious matter that effects us all is a joke and they know it.
